Returning after the international break, the young Foxes came into the game in good form, having comprehensively beaten Birmingham City in Premier League 2 last time out.

However, it was the visitors who were in the ascendency early on in Seagrave, taking the lead a quarter of an hour into the contest. Luca Fletcher latched on to Corbin Mthunzi’s aerial through ball, finishing past Freddie Marson.

Canada Under-17s international Will Daniels returned from the FIFA U17 World Cup earlier this month.

John McGreal’s Tractor Boys remained on top, though half-time substitute Lorenz Hutchinson did make an instant impact forcing a save from Williamson.

Nelson Eze double Ipswich’s advantage from close range 67 minutes in. Ryan Carr picked out Jamie Mauge on the right and his cross was met by Eze, who turned home.

Town’s Leon Elliott was shown a straight red card in the 82nd minute, but there was little time for City to force a way back into contention and the away side held on to secure their first Premier League Cup success of the group stage.

Lorenz Hutchinson strikes for goal in Seagrave.

Leicester, meanwhile, remain without a win in Group C, but have the chance to bounce back in the reverse fixture against Ipswich at Ecologic Stadium on Monday 1 December.

Before then, there’s a trip to Boreham Wood coming up on Tuesday in the National League Cup (both 7pm GMT kick-off)s.

The details…

City: Marson, Toko, Daniels, Gray (Khela, 82’), Amartey (c), Onanaye, Carr, Golding (Evans 62’), Otchere, Briggs, Omobolaji (Hutchinson, 46’).

Subs not used: Donohue, Akolbire.
